Reaping Sweet Potatoes. Referring lo the keeping of sweet potatoes, I am convinced, after two years experience, that the practice I have adopted is reliable and as near perfection as any, considering the ease of adaptation and execution. I never dig until the frost begins to bite the vines, foi to dig earlier will be lo lose the best growth in an average season. If the land is wet enough to have the tubers stuck with mud. I prefer waiting until even after frost, until it is dryer, as from dry dirt they come out in a much more sightly condition. When digging commences, drive four boards where you wish to winter them the height you wish the bank in such a way as lo form a square funnel or flue. Place around them a i cold he could not sing." Poor, unfortunate Ihttrachian! In what a sad plight ho must have been. And yet hia misfortune was one that often befalls singers. Mnny a once tuneful voice among those who belong to the “genus homo " is utterly spoiled by " cold in the head,'’ or on the lungs, or both , , r . . ,t. nf combined. For the above mentioned “croalt- bed of dry pine straw the diameter ot (T ,, wo , irc not nwim . that any remedy was ever devised; hut we rejoice to know that all human singers may Keep their heads clear and throats In tuoe by t 1 'timely use of Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy and Dr. Pierce’s Golden Med ical Discovery, both of which are sold by druggists. Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy cures the worst cases of Catarrh in the Head, no matter of how long standing, while for all laryngeal, bronchial, throat ami lung affections, llr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is posi tively unequalcd. It cures the worst linger ing coughs and builds up the llesn and strength of those who have been reduced by wasting diseases. It is cunrniileeil to benetlt or cure in all diseases for which it is recommended, if taken in time and given a fair trial, or money paid ior it refunded. the proposed bank. Now p'acd the potatoes around the flue as steep as they will pile. ■ When night comes on. cover them, say, with the thickness of three inches of pine straw, and after the sun is up in the morning remove the straw and sun again, and continue this for several consecutive days, when you may place the straw upon them and coter them with dirt, leaving the top of the flue open, and if you will now place a short course ot hoards of a broad piece of plank in such a wa\ as to turn off the rain and snow, you may leave the rest to kind providence, feeling assured that He will keep them for you until the following April, when He will call upon you to take them out ot their winter quarters and put them in a cool place. The especial objects to be attained are: Use pine straw to cover them with because they do not absorb dampness so readily as ether materials, and will not undergo heating or fer menting. They must be aired and sunned to dry the dampness and dts sipate as far as possible all the foreign matters and grasses deposited with them. The flue must always be kept open as a means of escape for impurities, gases and heat that con tinue to generate, especially at the bottom of the pile, thus tending to an even temperature within. I regard the potato crop as one of prime importance, but not as a money crop. The price they command will | not justify the extra expense of dig ging and marketing, but for almost all kinds of meat hogs, the hogs them selves to perform the labor of rooting them up, it is best to plant in two pl-is of ground, in seperate inclosures. After one patch has been exhausted, the hogs may be turned into the other, allowing the stock "hunch” to glean after them. I am satisfied that meat fattened in this way, and with the feeding of a small amount of corn, is the cheapest I can raise, The pas turage of a corn and pea field and a good sized potato patch is the best "mast” for hogs I know of.—Dixie Farmer. To Cure theYaste for Liquor. A corresponent of the New York Sun,in answer to the question, ‘‘Can any one give me a cure for drunken ness?” says: •‘Indulgence in spirits, after a while which is longer or shorter,according to the constitution of the person—pro duces inflamation, irritation and fever of the stomach, hence the craving for drink; and the greater the fever, the greater the craving. As spirits also act upon the nervous system and on the brain, the nervous system becomes impaired and the brain weakened. Who can deny that a person ailing in these several ways is laboring under a serious disease* He has then no will power to exercise, because the seat of the will is in the nerve centres, and when these are impaired or destroyed, so is also the will power. “Here is the cure: Let the person have within his reach a vial of the best tincture of peruvian bark and when the craving for liquor comes on let him take a teaspuonful of the tincture every two hours. In a few days the taste for liquor is destroyed, and de stroyed while indulging in it, for tinct ure ot Peruvian hark is spirits into which has been drawn all the sub stance of peruvian hark. It is to he found in every drug store, but it should be ot the very best. "Peruvian bark is a tonic. It is also the best, if not the only cure known for fever. It is from this bark that quinmejis extracted, and, moreover, it is anti-pcriodic. It is by these three agencies that n destroys the craving for liquor. Any one wishing to be cured of this ailment, can be, in the way I have described, but there are few drunkards, indeed, who wish to be cured.” Copyright, 188?, hy Wc s Dis. Med.
